Large Conquest Stage 5 Best Characters

Best Team for the First Half

This setup features Rin as the primary Shot AoE Attacker; Gen to break two Physical Plates (including Shot); and Kikoru to handle debuffs. By utilizing Kikoru's debuffs, you can leverage the stage effect to recover SP and boost your damage when attacking debuffed Kaiju.

Consider Adding a Defender

The team above is just one example. Other AoE Attackers like Isao Shinomiya (Prime Fist) work well, and Haruichi is a solid choice for the debuffer slot. As long as enemy damage isn't focused on a single ally, you can clear this without a dedicated tank, but slotting in a Defender is always a viable option for safety.

Best Team for the Second Half

For the second half, Meixing is a great pick as she can apply debuffs and easily capitalize on the stage effect. Other strong Attackers include Akari (Festive Christmas) and Gen (Future Sight), with Chester providing essential damage buffs.

Add a Defender as Needed

If your characters are Lv. 100, the example team works fine without a Defender. However, if you need more durability due to your specific team comp or Reinforce level, be sure to include a Defender.

Create an Effective Team

Squad 1: Include AoE Attackers

Kaiju No. 8 The Game AoE Attacker and Supports

In the first half of Stage 5, 5 miniature enemies appear at a time. It’s recommended to fill Squad 1 with AoE Attackers to quickly clear them.

Squad 2: Include Blast Attackers

In the second half, 3 enemies will appear, including midsized ones. Therefore, it’s generally best to include characters with Blast Attacks in Squad 2. Adding one tank here will help ensure a smoother and more stable run.
